While assisting in the care of an aging and yet very active parent, the author recounts many of the stories that were often told to her by her mother of some of the most memorable and vivid scenes in her long life of more than ninety years. As the mother of ten children and as the wife of a former State Senator and five term Attorney General from the State of Louisiana, Mrs. William J. (Dorothy) Guste, Jr. would indeed have some wonderful and amazing stories to share. These stories demonstrate the character of Billy and Butsie Guste, as they were more commonly and affectionately known, in often standing up for and defending many of the social justice causes of their day and in laying the groundwork for many of the civic, community and charitable endeavors that would proceed forward into the future with great success - all while raising a family of ten children. Also included is a cookbook of recipes written and compiled by "the General" and shared with his children, all as a wonderful memory of their collective love of cooking over the years as a shared favorite family pastime....
